Pastel pied and het pastel pied

[Albert Clark]

That all sounds like a good sign! My female black pastel pied that I was suspecting of being gravid started favoring the cool side, started eating like a ravenous fiend, and just all around no longer appears gravid. I'm hoping that she is simply still building and not that she's reabsorbed. I've been putting the male in with her, but I haven't witnessed any locks in nearly two months (not to say they haven't, I tend to put him in in the morning and not disturb them til the next morning). I still have the incubator warmed up just in case she's faking me out.

Good luck!!

Thanks again pl! Wow! I've been waiting for your girl too. Well you know what they say, " they'll go when their ready". Keeping my fingers crossed for you and for us.

She laid in June last year and she didn't seem gravid then either...so I very much haven't given up hope on a clutch this year. And as you know there is no rushing momma snake! Heehee.

EDIT: next year I plan to be more prepared to make more pieds with my odd looking boy, I'll be looking to get another breeder pied female. I've just been slowly looking for the right one.

Gotcha! That sounds like a plan. I hope they both give us something special. Lol.
